I've usually heard the "people with/out uteruses" language used in contexts where folks are trying to be trans-inclusive and not erase transmen who may still need these services, but you make a really excellent point about the harms of reducing these services to reproduction and locating them solely in the uterus. Anyone got suggestions that neither leave out transmen nor reduce people using these services to uteruses?

Thanks for this! PP was my doctor back before I got health insurance. Yes, I got the pill there, but also annual screenings and treatment if I needed it. I hope they're there for a long, long time to come.

Thanks for this post, Pam. Did not know you had endo.. one of my best friends does.. so does her mother. Consequently, my friend is an only child.. and the chances of her having kids herself are drastically narrow. It's a pity, she's really foxy. LOL. I'm not foxy, so I believe devoutly that people who are, should pass their foxiness on to somebody else. Haha.

You are absolutely correct though, in all seriousness. The watchword to health is vigilance.. and that vigilance still has to be there, even with the apropos death of Enid.
